2,400 American lives, over 38,000 civilians, and nearly $6 trillion

For 18 years, American soldiers have fought in Afghanistan. Over 2,400 of those soldiers are now dead, alongside at least 38,000 Afghani civilians. And yet, there’s still no end in sight. For 18 years, American soldiers have fought in Afghanistan. Over 2,400 of those soldiers are now dead, al…

With your support

Thank you. Because of the support of progressives like you, our campaign was able to meet a powerful end-of-quarter goal. That means we’ll be able to ramp up our fight to pass Medicare for All, win powerful action on climate change, build a bipartisan coalition for peace, and enshrine an I…

Inches away

Over the past two days, we’ve seen an incredible outpouring of support. After the Trump War Room came after us, progressives from across the country stood up to stand with our movement. I promise this is the last email you’ll receive from us today, but the team is adamant that I need to sen…

Can you chip in any amount right now to help our campaign close the gap and reach 10,000 donations for the quarter? Our average online donation for the quarter is just $14.47 proving that every dollar you donate will have a huge impact on our campaign. Cooper just called me and let me know…

Trump team attacks Ro

Monday

When we announced our goal the other day, we knew that 10,000 contributions is an ambitious goal. But we badly want to send a message on September 30th when we have to publicly release our fundraising numbers, how powerful our people-powered campaign is–– even without the support of federal lobby…

Donald Trump isn’t going to get away with it

Let’s be clear: holding Trump accountable for his misdeeds isn’t partisan. Ronald Reagan and George W. Bush wouldn’t have done this against their political opponents. Leveraging United States diplomacy to acquire information about a political rival from a foreign government is a violation of our …

Our team is small and scrappy

Ro is running this re-election campaign without a single dime of money from any PACs (corporate or otherwise) or federal lobbyists because he believes that elected officials must only be beholden to their constituents. In fact there are only three days left until we close the books on this qu…

We cannot be a world of walls

Millionaires waiting in the wings

Here’s why we have to be concerned: this is the age of Donald Trump. Self-obsessed millionaires who are willing to self-fund their campaigns see that maybe now they can win an election, and you and I both know there’s plenty of those in Ro’s district. Here’s the good news: right now, Ro doesn…

Ro’s fighting to elect Bernie Sanders

Ro’s work might not get as much attention as Donald Trump’s actions, but that doesn’t mean it’s less important. From fighting for powerful action on climate, to an Internet Bill of Rights, to leading an international movement for peace, he’s just as worthy of your investment than any Presidential…

Trump froze Ukrainian aid before demanding investigation into Joe Biden

50,000 auto workers standing strong

Donald Trump is holding high dollar fundraisers right now.

Steve King is fundamentally out of touch with reality
